Pâtisserie Zébulon doesn’t just make vegan desserts—it makes a case for why they should be taken seriously. Open since June 2021 at the busy corner of Saint-Denis and Mont-Royal, the compact shop is the creation of Zébulon Vézina and his sister Alice. With a background that includes the ITHQ, Helena Loureiro’s kitchens, and a stint with Christophe Michalak in France, Zébulon brings fine-dining discipline to plant-based pastry. Expect short but sharp offerings like a gluten-free exotic cheesecake layered with coconut mousse and passionfruit confit, or the wownie: a brownie-sablé hybrid topped with hazelnut praline and whipped ganache. Everything is made fresh each day with an emphasis on local, seasonal ingredients. It’s not about quantity here—it’s about finesse. And whether you’re vegan or not, the level of detail and flavour speaks for itself.
